Spectra479 Fit-Over Blue Blocking Amber Glasses for Sleep - Nighttime Eye Wear

I had forgotten my more expensive pair ($90) bluelight blocking glasses while on away on vacation. I decided to order these to hold me over while I was away. I am impressed with how well these glasses worked. They fit well, the lenses are good and block out blue light well, and they are comfortable to wear. I was sleeping like a baby when I put them on about 2 hrs before bed. Great for protecting my eyes when looking at screens at night. I heartily recommend. In fact, my wife liked them so much she said she didn't need the more expensive pair and was perfectly fine with these excellent glasses.

These glasses work great. They fit right over my prescription glasses in comfort. Filter out blue light vey well. Enjoyed ordering from this company. The glasses came packed securely with a protective bag with them. Prompt shipment.

These glasses are fabulous for regulating circadian rhythm because they truly block all blue light. Yes, everything is much darker when wearing them because they are designed to block blue light properly so if you are interested in improving sleep and circadian rhythm I highly recommend them. These heavy duty glasses are very comfortable over my prescription glasses and even easy to wear in bed after I've taken off my glasses underneath. I listen to meditations or YouTube before falling asleep and so I wear them up until I'm sure I'm ready to sleep and often fall asleep still wearing them because they're comfy.I find some of the negative reviews on this product ridiculous. For example, if you are only using these glasses for computer use, of course they are not going to improve your sleep. You need to wear them continuously until you are in the dark before taking them off. Any blue light exposure will cancel the effect.Another review stated they were too dark. Again, if you want the sleeping benefit these glasses provide then why complain about exactly the reason these glasses work when other glasses that allow more light do not work?I highly recommend these glasses and this seller is excellent, Shawn Severisen, owner of the Spectr479 brand, even emailing me a printable PDF Quick Start Guide and Q&A. It contained some tips and tricks on how to maximize your results. There is also a Blue Blocker Test Strip so you can see how your blue blockers perform. I have been super impressed with the seller and this product.

They fit nicely over my reading glasses. When I wear them alone, they are only slightly loose, which is a nice surprise since I have a small face and have to shop carefully for sunglasses or readers that don't slide down my nose constantly. Worn alone, they allow some light leakage around the edges, of course, since they aren't wraparound style. I've been wearing them and generally limiting my blue light exposure between sundown and sunup for the last couple of weeks, and I do seem to be falling asleep faster and sleeping more soundly than before.

These are great blue blocker glasses! I’ve purchased 3 and finding they’re helping me sleep better.Had a minor issue with one pair and the seller was terrific, very responsive and helpful, and made an effort to reach out to me to help and make things right.Very grateful for the folks who put the time, research, money and effort to advance this blue blocking light movement which promotes all our health and wellness. They need our support.I will happily purchase again.

I work late and I have a bad tik-tok bedtime habit. This is the third pair of blue-light blocking glasses I have tried and I felt an immediate difference. Everyone in my family wears blue-light blocking glasses after 6pm. I will be getting these for my husband...I just wish they had them in kid sizes. My 11 year old son, who wears glasses and is a gamer, really needs a pair of these. I think I might buy them even thought they might be a little big for him...because they are just honestly the best. They fit really well over my glasses unlike the other over the glasses pairs I have bought. Very happy I found these.

After purchasing another pair of fit-over, blue blocker glasses for much less money, I found they wouldn't fit over my prescription glasses - they weren't wide enough. For some reason, no one who sells these glasses on Amazon seems to think that's a relevant issue, so they publish the lens height, the lens width, and the EXTERNAL width of the frame, along with other dimensions - but they DON'T publish the internal width of the frame, which is the maximum width of prescription glasses that these can accommodate. Stating that a pair of glasses "will fit over most prescription glasses" is not useful.In this case, the seller responded quickly responded to my question, so I ordered these much more expensive glasses. So the seller gets full credit for being responsive. When the glasses arrived, I was pleased to find that they do fit over my (apparently) more than usually wide prescription glasses. The seller also gets credit for an accurate response, and the glasses get credit for fitting.These glasses do block blue light quite effectively, so I guess they deserve credit for that - but they have a number of drawbacks. As an aside, I have been a wearer of fit-over sunglasses for more than 20 years, so I have something to compare these glasses with. The ledge above the lens on these glasses, which rests on the top of prescription glasses, is not as deep as that on my sunglasses, and does not curve as much to wrap around my face. As a result, while the lenses block blue light effectively, a great deal of blue light comes in from above the lenses. The same thing happens at the sides of the glasses; the temples, while much wider than those of prescription glasses, are not as wide as those on fit-over sunglasses, so they don't block as much light coming in from the sides.As for the lenses themselves, they are effective at blocking blue light - maybe too effective. The orange lenses on these glasses are much darker than the yellow lenses on other products. Color perception is strongly affected - watching television takes some getting used to, but is moderately acceptable. Where I have greater difficulty is in using the computer. When working with a spreadsheet, any cells that use yellow highlighting simply disappear into the background - everything white on the screen becomes yellow, so it's no longer possible to identify the cells highlighted in yellow.My final nit-pick is with the overall darkening effect of the lenses. If I'm watching television in the living room, and get up to walk to the kitchen, I have to pass through a darkened hallway. The first time I did so wearing these glasses, I actually bumped into a wall. The same thing occurs if I'm working at the computer and want to go to another room - I have to pass through a darkened hallway. These glasses darken overall light perception enough to constitute a safety hazard.Overall, these glasses are well-made, fit me, and do what they say; and the seller is responsive. That sounds like it should be a five-star review. But while the lenses do what they're supposed to, it may be they do it too effectively on the one hand, and the frames manage to let light bypass the lenses. On top of that, these are double or triple the price of similar products. I'd like to give these a better review, but I just can't.

I was a little concerned about fit-over glasses, having been burned before, but I'm happy to report that these work! Granted, my current pair of glasses are frameless. Still, with high myopia and no contact lenses, it was important to me to find a pair of blue-blocking glasses that I could wear for hours without scratching my glasses. These fit the bill. They're light, well-balanced, and comfortable on my face.The glasses appeared in a cardboard box that was slightly squished and a handwritten post-it from the seller which I thought was a nice touch. The glasses themselves were in a microfiber-type bag and no issues with the quality. Lenses were clear (so clear!) and no scratches. I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to see out of the glasses, too. There is an amber tint, obviously, but images remain crystal clear, and it's easy to use when I'm on my computer, laptop, and other devices. No issues with reading text or with visual clarity.Interestingly, when I put them on, I can feel my eyes relax almost immediately, and it's so much less 'painful' to use the screen. I work mostly on the computer and my hobbies involve screentime, too, which means more than 12 hours of screentime on some days. I got these glasses because late work was interfering with my sleep. I've only used it a few days, but it seems to help - I woke naturally around 5~7am on the days that I used it, and I fell asleep much quicker and slept more soundly. I'll have to see how it goes but so far so good and I'm happy.Now, I just need something for daytime computer use...
